I'm Jewish, a poet, queer, fat, and dedicated to my family.
I'm a vegetarian. I won't lecture you about meat eating if you
don't make fun of my animal respect.
I love to travel, but don't often have the opportunity. I'm a
voracious reader, and am working my way through 'the classics' I
didn't get around to as an English major.
When I say I'm queer, it's a short way of saying I identify as a
lesbian but am not willing to close myself off to people based on
sex or gender. If I feel a connection, I pursue it, female, male,
whatever. Of course, it means much more than that, but that's the
cliffs notes explanation. Way TMI, I'm sure, but I'm just not that
comfortable with the 'bi' label. (Yes, that means I'll date
men.)
I'm a geek/nerd, a lover, a risktaker, and quite frankly, the very
very best at my favorite activities. What are those? You'll just
have to get to know me to find out.

a- Borderlands/La Frontera by Gloria Anzaldua is the best book
ever. Favorite novel? The Hours. Most frequently read book? The
Torah.
b- Anything by Wes Anderson, & anything with Alan Rickman in
it.
c- The Decemberists, The Dresden Dolls, Le Vent du Nord, The Avett
Brothers, REM, Peter Gabriel, other awesome music from the
eighties, and the mix cds my bff sends me with cool music I'd never
hear otherwise.
d- Is there anything that can compare to a good plate of
enchiladas?
